Biodiesel Approved Arctic Cat ATV
25 October 2006
Arctic Cat has been working on a diesel powered ATV for some time now and recently began production of the new model. The 686cc twin cylinder diesel engine powering the 4 wheeler is not only approved to use biodiesel of up to a B20 mix but its use is actually promoted by Arctic Cat with a tag on the ATV. The engine has performed very well in all tests and offers great performance.
The 686 cubic-centimeter twin cylinder, single-overhead-cam four-stroke diesel engine provides 30 percent greater fuel mileage and extra low-end torque compared with a conventional gasoline engine. The engine runs efficiently on six forms of diesel fuel, including B20, with a glow-plug pre-heater assist for starting.
The ATV was developed in conjunction with Roush Indiustries.
